The Exploding Barrel Podcast Show #50

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

We did it. 50 epidsodes and 1 year later we’re still here. To celebrate, we discuss one epic week of gaming that includes Bionic Commando Rearmed, Madden, Fable II Pub Games, Strong Bad, and more! And in addition to the Great Canadian Mikezors Gaming Quiz, we introduce a new segment called Answer of DIE. Join inside for all the juicy details along with NPD numbers and tales of alcoholism. Thanks again for a great year!

The Exploding Barrel Podcast Show #49

Monday, August 11th, 2008

It’s the highest rated XBLA game yet, it’s garnered critical and financial success, and it’s basically the only game we played this week. Well, that and more Soul Calibur IV. Join us for a special post-show discussion on Jonathan Blow’s excellent new game, Braid. We also continue to cover Mega Man 9 and Burnout Paradise because they always manage to be in the news. And after Ajguy’s victory over Mike’s short lived success, the Great Canadian Mikezors Gaming Quiz is back again.

The Exploding Barrel Podcast Show #48

Monday, August 4th, 2008

The soul still burns in this week’s Exploding Barrel Podcast. Soul Calibur IV is upon us, and thanks to the allure of the Star Wars franchise, we have both versions between us. It’s Vader vs. Yoda (we wish) as we talk about how good the game is (so good). Not to be missed, Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2 has been released on XBLA, bringing back the high score craze like it’s 1989. The Great American Ajguy Gaming Quize is back as well.
